JOM blueline mate. Budget coils bud. 60mm drop.

Matt's (tangomachine) is dropped 100mm but his front still doesn't sit as low as these. Though the rear is higher on mine.

In a nutshell, they look good, but in that year they have been extremely bumpy and have rusted. That doesn't account for all coils though so don't be put off. Plus they only cost £200 brand new so, can't expect wonders.

I love the lowered look, but the punto's are definately not designed for it haha. Daily splitter scrapeage, but never any damage. Apart from when I hit a rock with my strut bar under the engine.

yeah thats the one!! though he has taken some off I think. You seen the fading on my bumpers? keep an eye out for it, or even better, look after the paint before it happens. Unfortunately for me, it had already begun when I bought the car.

My brakes have a lip on them - this mean they need replacing?

 

[AgnessGP]

Think top mounts are in urgent need of replacement - the clunking on set off (only when cold) and a rattling sound that sound like a loose nut. Although the bang out of tight corners. If they do need replacing, I am endangering myself by not replacing them? Do they give way eventually or?
